He kept his lips pressed against mine for a long minute. No erotic movements, just exchange of warmth. In that moment, I felt his need for intimacy. His lips were spilling it all. He was craving the electric tingles that only my touch could bring him. The one that makes one forget everything. I felt his lips parting against mine and engulfing my lower lip in its warmth. He was gentle and caring this time. I lay still like a statue as he nibbled hungrily on my lower lip, leaving a slew of small dents in its wake. His kisses were noisy just like his ragged breathing.My eyes were still closed and all I could imagine was him with her. "Kiss me back," he whispered and brushed his lips against mine in encouragment. "Was she not enough?" I asked coldly. He stiffened up. The heat of his lips left mine as he inched away to look at me. I opened my eyes and leveled him with a cold gaze. He didn't look pleased. "What do you want?" he gritted out, sounding irritated."Would you let me go if
I smiled as the squirrels chased each other around the tree, full of vim and vigor. I couldn't help but wonder how tension-free their life is. They have no care in life, no worries, no regrets. Just eat, play, sleep, and repeat. I wished I was a squirrel too. I would also hop from tree to tree, collecting beans. I craved a simple life with no complications. I didn't want to feel. Emotions complicate things and more so when they overlap. I hate him for hurting me and my friends, I truly do but damn when he starts taking care of me. He makes me feel like I am the only person that matters. My hatred of its own takes a backseat, and a warm fuzzy sensation sweeps over my senses. My gaze flickered to the reflection in the glass wall of this high-end store and my smile slipped. I was here to "help" Zavion select a suit for his mating ceremony. I wasn't taking his calls and had been ignoring his messages all day long. He hit back by sending his third in command, Ivan, home to fetch me. It w
"Open the door. Now," I seethed, boiling from inside. It was unfair. So fucking unfair. Why did he have to be better than me in everything- from power, status, and wealth, to strength? Is there anything in this world I can beat him in? I had stopped struggling for I knew I would only tire myself out. He possessed the strength of thousand bulls in his each arms and I was just a green belt in karate which I had learned only about three years ago to protect myself and Penny. At this moment, I cursed my uncle for not letting me have the required training. Those monsters. They taught me household chores and kept me from training. Their logic was simple- I was born to mate and breed for an alpha. Training me to fight would have been a waste of their efforts."Until you tell me what is wrong, that door will stay closed," he spoke deliberately, looking assertively into my eyes. Surrounded by his commanding aura, it struck me how different we were. He was accustomed to being listened to and I
The air stilled. A sharp stinging pain burned my palm but looking into his blood-crimson eyes, I felt nothing except for blind terror. He was enraged. Enraged like wildfire destroys everything in its way. His face was red and contorted in utmost fury. My gaze flickered to his sides to see his hands balled into tight fists. My fear mounted. He was going to punch me. I stood numb as he slowly got up in my face and drew his upper lip back in a fierce snarl- assuming his predatory stance. My eyes turned wide before clenching shut as he drove his fist right in my direction. A loud thud punctured the silence, making me flinch and whimper at the same time. With bated breath, I waited for the pain to hit me but it never came. Instead, I felt his hot breathing fanning my face. Hesitant, I opened my eyes and gasped when I realized just how close he was to me. Our nose was almost touching as he stared into my eyes with fierce intensity. The seething chaos in his head filtered through his orbs.
"I want to hear no complaints, Penn. Be on your best behavior and stay near granny, okay?" I reminded her for the hundredth time. She nodded her tiny head at me, grinning ear to ear. Whereas she was beyond excited to go on the trip, I was close to tears. This was the first time I would have to live away from her. "Did you pack me jelly?" she asked, bouncing on her feet. I nodded yes." Mumma will miss you," I kissed her cheek. She told me to come with her then I wouldn't have to miss her. I chuckled at her logic and told her I can't. She pouted but nodded in understanding. After that, I made her sit in the backseat between her grandmother and Aunt. Nora gathered her into a side hug and tickled her belly. Penny begins to squirm and giggle. Even though Nora was mad at me, she never discriminated against Penny. A smile pulled at my lips without me knowing as I watched them. I had no concerns regarding Penny's safety as I knew they will protect her with their lives. Kesslers were thick a
My phone blared, jerking me awake from my slumber. I grabbed my phone and squinted at it. A smile spread across my face as I realized who it was. "Mommy," Penny's grinning face popped up on my screen as soon as I accepted the call. "Ron is taking me and Adam out today. He said we are going to do lots of fun," she chirped. I responded with a smile. "Did you have your breakfast?" I asked. She nodded and told me everything she did since waking up today. "Where is Daddy?" she asked once she was done telling everything. It is then I realized I was alone in bed. He must have left for work. I opened my mouth to speak when the bathroom door opened and out-stepped Zavion in all his glory. I couldn't help but check him out as he dried his hair with a towel. His lower half was covered with a white towel while his naked torso was decked with several tiny droplets of water. "Daddy is here," I said and flicked my gaze back to the screen. Zavion made his way to where I was and chucked his
I had the whole house to myself after he left for work. I wasn't used to staying alone in a grand ass mansion like this and honestly, I don't think I can ever get used to the hollow silence bouncing off these tall magnificent walls. I decided to hit the bathroom and take a shower. My mouth was still burning with the spice he tongue-forced into it. Looking in the mirror, I quickly grabbed and squeezed some toothpaste on my brush and started brushing. I stopped suddenly and frowned as the paste tasted funny. I brushed again and the doubt reaffirmed. Disgusted, I immediately spat the content and washed my mouth with water. I had never tasted something this bad ever. The taste lingered on my tongue and I shuddered in revulsion. Confused, I sniffed the paste but it had no odor, unlike my paste. It took me only a moment to spot a different tube tucked behind my brush container. Reaching over, I brought it to the front and realized it was his shaving cream. What in the hell? I threw the tub
He straddled me and deepened the kiss. Deep yearning and raw need rolling off his tongue to mine, I was overwhelmed. Looming over me, he gripped my jaw and angled my face for better access. No gentleness. His movement was of a fierce warrior, fuelled by passion, driven by madness. I was his prey which he intended to devour to bones. He pierced into my plump lower lip with a sharp sting, eliciting a whimper from me.He inched away to look into my eyes. My heart was jackhammering in the cage of my ribs. "You know how I was imagining you?" he exhaled hotly on my lips. His voice gruff and full of suggestions. His eyes bare of deception, overflowing with lust. I gulped.He tilted his head and brought his mouth closer and whispered "I imagined you sprawled naked in my tub with your legs wide open." My breathing slowed down. He pecked my lips repeatedly. I was aware of his hand creeping down my throat to my breast. My lips parted to let out a small gasp as he squeezed the lump and pecked my
EVANGELINATHREE MONTHS LATERThis is how it must feel like to have a Happy Ever After. To have a happy ending is a blessing and I am grateful to have it. I feel wholesome and so happy. I cannot thank Moon Goddess enough for choosing him for me. I always wanted a mate who will love me unconditionally. Someone who will fill my life with love and happiness. Never imagined Goddess will fulfill my wish. Zavion changed my life and turned it into an absolute fairytale. He takes care of me and fulfills all my desires as they are his own. I am still trying to settle into my new position as Luna and I would be lying if I said it's a cakewalk. It is not. I am watched and judged all the time. I fail too. It took me a whole week only to learn fighting stances. It's difficult. Much more difficult than I had expected it to be. However, submitting is not an option for me. I want to become skillful. I want to become worthy of Zavion. "Are you fantasizing about me?" his heart-soothing voice hit my ea
THIRD POV"Where is she?" Aaron hollered thunderously in the hall. His bloodshot eyes were clouded with madness. His booming voice bounced off the lofty walls, prompting members to rush out in a state of alarm. "What happened?" Cora enquired when she noticed her youngest's chaotic state. Ron power-walked towards her and held her shoulders. "Where is she, mom?" he demanded angrily with an undertone of desperation. Cora, clueless glanced over Nora who looked just as confused. She shifted her gaze back to her son who seemed to be on the verge of losing his control. "Who?" Cora questioned."Sylvia. She is gone," he told her. A hint of pain accompanied his tone. Cora's eyes widened in shock."How?" she asked, still shocked. Ron released her and turned around to look at other family members. His enraged eyes swept around the hall, taking in everyone. "Who helped her leave?" he growled like a wounded lion. Everyone was shocked to see this side of his. Ron was never the type to hold ange
SYLVIAHis tongue rolled inside me, eliciting a gentle sigh straight from my bosoms. I reciprocated, greedy for more and more of him. I wanted to drown myself in his kisses and touch. I was aware of the consequences. He was drunk and might not remember anything of it come tomorrow. But..but I wasn't able to move away. I let him hold me by my waist. I let him pull me on his lap and invade my mouth completely. How could I not? Every inch of mine was yearning for his touch. I felt alive again as he squeezed and kneaded me. He grabbed a fistful of my hair and deepened our kiss. I moaned in his mouth, relishing his dominating side. My hands of their own begin fumbling with the buttons of his shirt. I needed him inside me at this very moment. I needed him to fill me up. Before I could undo his last button, he threw me on the bed. I blinked at him as he crawled over me, his eyes never straying from mine.His orbs were caught in the blazes of lust, his expression was of a feral animal starvi
EVANGELINAI heard him lashing out in the phone from the door. He sounded furious. From what I gathered, Ron had marked Sylvia. The news had left me just as shocked and worried for the woman. I should be the last person to sympathize with her after what she did. But try as I may I cannot forget the sorrow I had witnessed in her eyes when we met the last time. She had realized her mistake. Punishing her more will only batter her already torn soul. "I don't care why you did it, Ron but don't you forget she is a Kessler now. If you harmed that girl unnecessarily. You will have to face my wrath," Zavion warned Ron in a serious tone. Pride swells in my heart. Zavion had no fondness for Sylvia but he was also not the type to sit on the fence when his family is being persecuted. Sylvia was a family now.We honestly had a long discussion about her before he decided her punishment. I tried to make him see her perspective. Being a mother, I should hate her the most but I don't. What she did wa
AaronHer soft snores rang through the room all night long. How did she manage to fall asleep on the cold, hard floor is beyond me. I wish I could say I slept as well as her but that would be a big fat lie. Sleep had escaped me. I just tossed and turned in the bed, struggling to not think about her. Not long ago, she used to sleep here with me. We would cuddle all night long. So different from where we were today. She was sleeping so peacefully and I couldn't help but feel bitter about it. Does she not miss my body next to hers? How easy it was to fall asleep for her without me. I tried to sleep but I just couldn't. My wolf and my body were urging me to carry her back to my bed and cuddle with her but I denied it. Never in this lifetime, I was going to sleep with her in one bed again. In the morning when I got up from my bed, she was still sleeping. As though she had not slept her entire life. I glared at her, contemplating pouring a bucket of cold water on her. I was already irrita
AARON"Why did you do this?" Mom demanded, looking furious. I knew this was coming. Everyone was looking at me waiting for an answer. Why did I do this? To teach her a good lesson."She is my mate. I can mark her if I want to," I replied dryly. My mother's gaze flickered to the unconscious Sylvia in my arms before backing up to my face. She looked unconvinced. "You have marked her to make her life miserable," Mom corrected me. I clenched my jaw. "Alpha has banished her. What more do you want?" Nora sounded equally mad. A scowl was plastered across her face, her eyes spitting fire at me. Everyone was mad at me. I had no idea why were they all defending this ungrateful betrayer."I will not have more discussion about it," I gritted out and stormed off to my room. I felt their eyes stabbing my back as I power-walked toward my room. I glanced down at her. She looked lifeless. The blood was trickling down her neck in a thin line where I had marked her, I didn't bother to seal it back. I
ZAVIONI let my mouth trail over her delicate belly. The warmth of my breath raising goosebumps all over her silky, rosy-white skin. Seeing her body's response to my touch pleases me to no end. I love how she shivers involuntarily every time I brush my lips against her flat tummy. It's too flat for my liking. I was going to fill it up with my baby. The thought was followed by the painful memories of Eva's miscarriage. The incident inflicted deep pain on both of us. She acts fine but I know she is still reeling from that. I have caught her crying alone a few times. She never cries in front of me. Perhaps, because she doesn't want to stress me out. I never leave a chance to let her know what an amazing person is. I love the way she looks but what has me on my knees for her is the way she is; So beautiful, so amazing. But she was getting better now. Healing day by day. This vacation was doing her good. We were in bed since morning, too lazy to get out and too much in love to lay still.
SylviaHe wants me dead. Night flew by but I was still stuck in that moment. I thought him hating me would hurt me the most but him wanting me dead just felt even worse. It still hurts so bad. It was like thousand scorching needles were constantly being jabbed into my heart. The pain was unbearable. He will never forgive me, let alone love me. He wants me dead and I want the same now. What's the point of living without him anyway. It was clear he wasn't going to love me ever again, what will I do with a life that won't have him in it? I hoped Zavion would give me a death sentence. I hoped he would give me the most miserable death so that Aaron feels at ease. If my death gives him happiness, he will get it. My stomach lurched at this point and I crouched forward to puke. I retched but nothing came out. I had already committed a few times since last night. My cell and I were stinking of my vomit and piss. I was at my worst. I slumped against the wall and closed my eyes. My head was sp
DIMITRYI watched her from the shadow as she talked away with Nora. They were perched in the front porch of mansion. Her read head bobbing adorably as she carried out the conversation with a hint of enthusiasm. They were talking about ice creams. I smiled, noting my mate has a thing for ice cream. I've been trying to get closer to her but she always shoots me down. She looks so comfortable every time I try to engage in a conversation that I end up dropping it.I don't know why she was acting so distant. Does she not know I am her mate? Does she not like me? The thought was scary. I was never keen on finding my mate. In fact unpopular opinion but I believed that having a mate would be a hassle for my carefree life. I loved swimming in pussies and one wouldn't be enough to satisfy me. But my thoughts took a drastic turn when I locked eyes with her. At first, I didn't realize she was my mate as I couldn't smell her scent due to the cold. But the attraction I felt for her was instant. She
